For your safety
The garden pump may only be connected
to an electrical device which is compliant
with DIN/VDE 0100, Parts 737, 738 and
702 (swimming pools). Make sure that fuse
protection in the form of a 10 A automatic
cut-out and a fault current guard circuit
with a nominal fault current of 10/30 mA is
installed.
The supply voltage and current specified
on the type plate must be identical with the
voltage and current of your electrical
system.
If you need to connect your pump to an
extension cord, make sure that the cable is
3 x 1.5 mm
2
, that it corresponds to type
H07RN-F and is compliant with DIN
57282/57245. The connector must be
splash-proof. Cable drums must be com-
pletely unwound.
The garden pump may not operated by
anyone who has not read or does not fully
understand the operating instructions or is
under the age of 16.
The garden pump may not be used for any
other than its designated use. Before
putting the system into operation, make
sure that the garden pump, the electric
cable and the plug are not worn or dam-
aged and the garden pump is not exposed
to water jets or is operated in the rain.
Do not operate the garden pump if it is
damaged. Necessary repairs must be
carried out in a qualified AL-KO service
centre.
Never use the electric cable to lift, carry or
attach the garden pump to another object.
Do not pull on the cable when unplugging
the pump.
Make sure that the pump is unplugged
before beginning any maintenance, repair
or cleaning work. In the event of a malfunc-
tion, immediately unplug the pump. Make
sure that the plug does not get wet.
Do not attempt to make any changes or
modifications to the garden pump by
yourself. You may endanger your life or
invalidate the warranty.
Make sure that the garden pump is placed
securely onto a flat surface when in opera-
tion so that it cannot tip over.
Risk of injury due to hot water!
The water in the pump can heat up signifi-
cantly, during longer periods of operation
(>10 min) against closed outlet side.
This hazard can occur due to:
− side under compression closed
− water shortage in the suction line
− improper installation
− faulty pressure switch
In this case:
− isolate the pump from the mains
− allow the pump and water to cool down
− check water level on inlet side
− check lines for tightness
− check installation
− check pressure switch
− only restart pump after rectifying the
cause of the fault
